Hi,
Which version of Neo4j are you using? The reason I ask is because...

In Neo4j 2.0.x you could do this really easily. e.g. to create Mr Jones I
might write the following cypher query:
CREATE (mrJones:Person {name: "Mr Jones"})
And then to find him again I can write the following query:
MATCH (p:Person {name: "Mr Jones"})
RETURN p
And then I have Mr Jones! You can do all this using Neo4j browser
(available at http://localhost:7474/browser when you start Neo4j server). I
think you'll find that easier to use than Neoeclipse.
Hope that helps but let me know if not.
